[ { "url": "https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/abc123/title/" }]Subreddit names — the latest posts in each are opened and their comments scraped. The r/ prefix is optional. Example: "AskReddit" or "r/technology".
[ "news"]Which posts to pick from a subreddit before scraping their comments. Example: "top" surfaces the highest-scoring posts.
Time window for Top / Controversial. Example: "week" returns the top posts of the past 7 days.
Upper bound on comments scraped per post. Example: 50 keeps the run fast; set 100 to capture a busy thread more fully.
Maximum nesting depth of the comment tree to traverse. Example: 0 = top-level comments only; 6 = deep nested replies.
Keep only comments created on or after this date. Leave empty for no limit. Example: "2026-01-01".
How many posts to open in total (comments are then extracted from each). A run lasts at most ~10 minutes. Example: 25.
Cap on posts opened from each subreddit. Example: 10 opens the first 10 posts of each subreddit you list.
Pagination depth per subreddit listing (25 posts/page). Example: 2 pages through up to 50 posts per subreddit.
Retry attempts per failed request. Example: 3 retries before a request is skipped.
Politeness delay between requests, in milliseconds. Example: 300 spaces requests ~1/3 second apart.
